If I already have colored the Documents\ Node with many folders ... I would have expected that these Folders are also get colored at "C:\Users..\Documents\" and then it is a redundant work to do.
Why would you have expected that to happen? Since as jacky described, they may look to be the same folders but they are not the same as far as the tree is concerned...so given that, it's not really redundant.
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

If I add a Folder of "Documents\SomeFolder" to the Catalog. And then Select this Folder from the Catalog, XY shows up this Folder "C:\Users\..\Documents\SomeFolder" instead of "Documents\SomeFolder"

Off-Topic End.
Works fine here. :?
Here at Windows 7 not. (32 Bit)

Anyway I had to Edit the Catalog-Item from this Path "C:\Users\..\Documents\SomeFolder" to "Eigene Dokumente\Eigene Videos\". Saved it. If I now click on this Catalog-Item it shows up the SomeFolder at the "Documents" TreeNode.

So at least this is a bug am I right?
OK, now I see the bug is in adding the folder. Indeed when you add it by drag-n-drop from a special folder it is added as a real (non-special) path. I'll fix that,
